Ah! A day of rest in sweet jazz! This jazz mixtape/podcast beings with depicting the sounds of morning with Build An Ark’s, “Morning Glory”. The day continues into a “Fortnight” by the British jazz group, The Will Collier Septet. Then, a classic number, “I Let a Song Fall Out of My Heart”, [...]
He’s a cool cat with a smooth vocal and uses his instrument to bring healing to all who listen. I’m talking about Nhojj, who’s the feature of this week’s popolio pop quiz. This link will take you to the popolio pop quiz and feature a track from his latest work, Soul Comfort, called [...]
Going to Tim’m West’s Front Porch event (the first one in Dallas) at Sterling Hotel last night inspired me to blend my own musical idea of what I felt and heard. Two groups in this mix were there last night. You can catch photos here. Of course, Tim’m himself starts this mix with [...]

Drinking a glass of cherry cola mixed with my favorite, Pyrat Rum, inspires the smoothness that jazz can sometimes provide. Jazz music can also rock, too, but not right now. Now is the time for a rendition of Stevie Wonder’s “Visions”, performed by Indigone Trio & Strings. Vikter Duplaix, along with Jimmy [...]
This time around, I’m keeping the soul grooves rap-free. Nhojj has a delicious new serving of musical treats called Soul Comfort that’s available at CD Baby. The cut, “Love”, is my personal groovepoint right now. It sounds like what I love about the mid-tempo grooves of Maxwell and even Atlantic Starr. [...]
